SP2 And Addon Scenery

I'm familiar with the compatibility issues that SP2 introduced with addon aircraft models, but how does it affect addon scenery?

I'm curious because lately, a lot of suposedly FSX addon scenery that I download causes FSX to crash with SP2-Acceleration\DX9\Vista-64 bit.

Are you running in DX10?  They had to eliminate some backwards compatibility when they added DX10, so that could be your problem.

If not, check the texture formats used for the scenery.  If the textures are dds, then I dunno, if they're bmp or extended bitmaps, then that's probably the issue.
